I'm on a pool right now and it's taking forever to update the confirmed/unconfirmed balance - like for the past 1-2 hours

anyone else experiencing this?

This is getting me an average of 344kh/s with an ASUS R9 280X.

Code:
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
cgminer.exe --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://vtc.coinvention.net:4333 -u USERNAME -p PASSWORD -v 1 -w 256 -I 13 -g 2 --lookup-gap 2 --gpu-powertune -20 --temp-target 65 --temp-overheat 75 --temp-cutoff 80 --gpu-memclock 1500 --gpu-engine 1000 --thread-concurrency 8191

which model do you have? the 3 slot version or the 2 slot? (the 3 slot is v2, the non v2 version is the 2 slot one)

I have the 3 slot one and can get nowhere near that, lucky with 280/300

The 2 slot. This one - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121803

Those are some great speeds with your 7950 cards. On the exact same settings (except for lookup-gap 1) I'm getting a maximum of ~280KH/s per card, using 4 cards. Are you using optimized binary files by any chance?

No sir! Just stock bamt 1.1 and 1.3 instances (well stock until i messed them up for vertminer). Figure i should mention my 2 other Powercolor 7950's in my bamt 1m3 system are getting 312.9 and  313.3 respectively.

Hi,

this is the config for my AMD Sapphire r9 290 (Hawaii, firmware updated)  under debian jessie and catalyst 14.1


export GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT=200
export GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS=1



{
"pools" : [
  ....
],
"intensity": "20",
"worksize": "256",
"vectors" : "1",
"lookup-gap" : "2",
"gpu-fan" : "100",
"thread-concurrency": "33280",
"gpu-engine": "1000",
"gpu-memclock": "1500",
"gpu-powertune" : "20",
"temp-cutoff" : "120",
"temp-overheat" : "80",
"temp-target" : "70",
"api-port" : "4028",
"expiry" : "120",
"gpu-threads" : "1",
"log" : "5",
"queue" : "0",
"scan-time" : "60"
}


The result is 391 kh/s with ZERO HW

Anyone got any ideas on why my reject rate is so high (about 30%)
no hw errors, and barely hashing 300 kh/s on one rig (3 r9 280x asus)
the 2nd one has the exact same cards, mobo, and memory as the first, but the best it can do is about 250 kh/s per card.. the only diff is the first pc has a phenom x3 and the 2nd one has a semperon 145..

I'm using i13, tc8250 g1 lookup gap 0 or 2 (doesn't matter to hash rate) and g1 (using 2 makes my 3rd vid card crash)

Been trying to tweak for my 7990 (2x7970 with 3GB VRAM per GPU), and I can't get more than 470-480 KH/s which is only a third of what I get with normal cgminer/kalroth.

I'm using --intensity 13 --lookup-gap 2 -g 2 -w 184 --shaders 2048 --thread-concurrency 6112

This is the maximum intensity, work memory and TC I can reach without hw-errors. Anyone made better results with 7970/7990?

502 Bad Gateway

nginx
why does it do this often when I try to change pages,

but whatever,

Still can't get 7950 HD to get past 8-10Khs, have posted link above but quote took my post also, with link I have and problem trying to dl that program. If I can actually download it with some help, can I run it like cgminer suchas just from cmd. I have never got a config or batch file to work ever so I just enter my perrimeters in start run cmd on windows and it works fine without a bat or config, but on vertigo, can't get past the 8-10khash. plz help saphire raydon sku 11196-20-19g

Using Bamt, the first line for that "hack" that you enter copies vertminer from the net to your usb stick.

I'm a bit surprised by the 7950 results I have been seeing in this thread. I modified almost nothing from my config from when i was mining scrypt, and I fired up vertminer in a modified bamt 1.1 setting (using this mod https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.4668635) and here is what I get:

thx, was going to try veritiminer but can't seem to find a working url. It all says

:initial setup for vertminer https://github.com/Bufius/vertminer-gpu
where is the total download package because i don't know where to click to find it thx

Powercolor 7950 PCS+ - 314.5 kh/s
core/mem 1070/1500,
stock vddc,
thread-concurrency of 21712,
gpu-threads 1,
lookup-gap 1
intensity 20,
worksize 256
temperature is 74C at 59% fan (set to auto)

XFX 7950 DD (TDKC) - 307.7 kh/s
core/mem 1040/1495,
stock vddc,
thread-concurrency of 21712
gpu-threads 1,
lookup-gap 1
intensity 20,
worksize 256
temperature is 73C at 86% fan (set to auto)

No HW errors and a 0.4% reject rate.


I also have a 5770 in the same system running at 83.1 kh/s
core/mem 910/1250,
vddc 1.100,
thread-concurrency of 3100,
gpu-threads 1,
lookup-gap 1
intensity 18,
worksize 256
temperature is 67C (fan not registering a speed apparently. might be too low)


This is all running on a very old system that consists of a DFI NF4 Ultra-D with a single core Opteron 146 CPU and 1GB DDR. I see no correlation between amount of system memory and thread-concurrency settings. My other system runs with 4GB of DDR2 and the results i get for my 7950's in scrypt are the same.

I was starting to wonder if I could go higher by changing my TC, but from what I see, i'm probably pushing the limit already.

I have another rig running 2 more 7950's and a 270x on bamt 1.3. If I have time, I will modify my bamt 1.3 for vertminer and see how it performs.

EDIT: ASUS DirectCU II TOP R9 270X in BAMT 1.3 - 191 kh/s
core/mem 1100/1250,
vddc stock,
thread-concurrency of 12288,
gpu-threads 1,
lookup-gap 1
intensity 19,
worksize 256

I have the following settings on my 2xGigabyte 7950s setup (I got a couple of cards n the shop):
./vertminer -o startum+tcp://stratum.vertco.in:8080 -u -p x -I 13  --thread-concurrency 14777   --gpu-engine 1050  --gpu-memclock 1500

these are the best settings I can get without getting HW errors and all I get is a whopping 327 mhs  Angry!!!!

Apparently everyone has r9 280x now, so I have been having a lot of trouble trying to get better settings around here  Undecided

Would be awesome if more people published their configs for 7950s


Cheers!  Grin

That's not bad. Remember hashrate is half of normal scrypt. Going to try your settings as mine (posted some 20 updates ago) got me a good 250Khs on HD7950's.

--gpu-platform 0 -I 19-w 256 --thread-concurrency 16384  --gpu-engine 1070 --gpu-memclock 1500

8-10Khash/sec same with other 7950 HD posted what gives also using modified cg that vertigo said to use

Also whats up with this 502 Bad GatewayShit, been trying to post for 30 min already?"

Hi,

Can anyone explain the need for more system memory with the new vertminer?  
Is there a formula we can use to determine if adding memory will help with the kh's?  
I'm running vertminer and have 3gb's free, is the additional memory requirement just a measure of total memory in the system and not used?
Randomly people are adding in memory and getting better results, it would be great if someone that added memory
into their system posted a measurement of ram used before and after adding it, or someone knowledgeable on the new
algorithm posts an explanation.

Getting around around 290/300 kh/s with 7950 sapphire dualx with boost 3GB  No HWs

-I 13 -w 256 --thread-concurrency 8192  --gpu-powertune 20 --gpu-engine 1100 --gpu-memclock 1500  1.187V VGPU

have same card, can't get more than 8-10 K what am I doing wrong, using underclocking, can usually get 630Khash with normal script
